Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz fettuccine pasta
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups asiago cheese, grated
- 1.5 cups gouda cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux. Slowly pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
Continue to cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly (about 4-5 minutes).
Reduce heat to low and stir in the grated asiago and gouda cheeses until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Add the cooked fettuccine to the cheese sauce and toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, olive oil, and chopped parsley. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the pasta in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
